  • However, what you can do is find content that you want to interact with on the remote instance, copy the URL and then search for that URL on your server. That will pull that content and its context to your instance.

    Neat! Though it does not pull all context, just the “upstream” context. Meaning that if I search a post’s or comment’s URL, it will not pull in comments below it. But if I search a low-level comment, it will pull in all parent comments from that comment chain as well as the post itself. And, like another commenter mentioned, it will not pull in the votes.

    EDIT: On second thought, what I call “upstream context” is probably what Lemmy technically considers simply “context”, isn’t it?
